MY DINING ROOM

THE FYI:

-For paint colors click here-Drum shade from Armour & Co (the store was within walking distance of our home in Atlanta) In the clearance bin I found what is now my dining room fixture- for $20! I hired an electrician here in Nashville who made it happen (no conversion kit was used) and presto! Never underestimate a clearanced item you can repurpose!
-Linen bench from P.D's ($499) (read about it here)

-Ethiopian crosses and photography on walls (all framed in Atlanta) from my travels to Kenya
-Both consoles from Metropolitan Deluxe in Atlanta (no longer exists)
-Candlesticks and basket on the dining table from Homegoods

@Jessie- You can't see in the pics, but the wood floor has a trim inlaid that is a border and its too gorgeous to cover up! It makes it look like a wood rug, lol. The coffered ceiling and the floor are my FAV parts of the room for sure. Otherwise, you know I'd have to try one! lol

I'm stopping by via Kelly's Korner.You have a wonderful room to entertain and enjoy delicious meals. I'm having such a great time visiting the SUYL participants' dining rooms. There's so many creative people! I'm definitely take lots of notes!You did a terrific re-do of your dining room. My favorites are the runner, the beautiful table and the centerpiece.
